031 Reducing the Household Overwhelm with The Organised Mum (Gemma Bray)

One of the inescapable facts of life is cleaning, tidying and keeping our homes organised. Not just the physical act of doing the housework, but also the mental load of keeping everything running smoothly which still lands disproportionately on the shoulders of women.

Today I’m joined by Gemma Bray, a Sunday Times bestselling author who has helped revolutionise the lives of thousands of people by helping them structure their housework and their daily lives. Through Organised Mum Method and Organised Time Method, Gemma helps parents around the world free themselves from the overwhelm.

What You Will Learn In This Episode:

- How to stop struggling with the images of perfection we are bombarded with every day

- How to calm your nervous system from overwhelm

- How to address the root cause of the problem rather than addressing the symptoms

- The importance of accepting that good enough is good enough and that perfect doesn't exist

- How to define your current priorities

- How to make the difference between motivation and momentum

- How to start with little things and eventually build a new habit into your life

You can't take away the household chores, but you can find a way to feel more in control of your life.  Working smarter, not harder can help to free us up for other things such as more time for rest, exercise, for kids or hopefully a combination of all of those things!

About the Podcast

Busy Woman's Guide to Wellbeing
Mindset, Balance & Fitness for Real Life
The Busy Woman’s Guide is a wellness podcast for women looking for a healthy lifestyle that fits THEIR rhythm, not a cookie cutter version of all the “shoulds” and to-do lists out there.

Hosted by Alix Hubble, women’s therapeutic, fitness and life coach, I take you deeper into a wellbeing for YOU.

Because you already know what it takes to build healthy habits, and you’ve got enough productivity tips, workout motivation hacks, and tips for how to be consistent, how to stop procrastinating and how to achieve work life balance to last a lifetime.

So let’s explore what really sits beneath your burnout, your lack of consistency, your self sabotage, or your need to always “be on it.”

This is your permission slip to stop performing, start listening to yourself, and create a rhythm that actually fits your life.

If you’re asking questions like these….this is the place to be:

- How to stop overthinking?
- How can I be productive without burning out?
- How can I stop tying my self worth and self esteem to being busy?
- How can I stop self-sabotaging my progress?
- How do I feel more comfortable in my own skin again?
